These are both so impressive.
I really like the parts choices for Vanguard. The POC armor pieces - even the wrinkled cloth arms and legs. Just presents together really well. As was mentioned, the lean look for Bloodbath serves to make him look more menacing. Even more impressive is the multi layer painting. These look more like Premium collector statutes rather than 1/18th playable figures! |

Awesome customs, choice of parts on Vanguard give him the right proportions/bulkiness appropriate for the character. Exceptional paint& weathering, you always make it look so simple.
I'm digging Bloodbath's slimmer silhouette which doesn't take away an inch from his lethal skills as a true paid assassin. Torso looks pretty sleek as well. Really nice!! |

I definitely agree with others’ comments about the builds and paint. I am partial to POC/30th era parts and they look great here as your canvas, Todd.
